Tips:
1. The oven I use is 42 liters, the grill has 3 layers, and the middle layer is baked; the baking time and temperature are for reference, and adjust appropriately according to the actual oven conditions.
2. It is easier to cut when it is completely cooled and then cut. Hot cut is very crisp and easy to break.
3. Store in a sealed room at room temperature. If stored under refrigeration, reheat before eating.
4. The bakeware is a printed square bakeware from Suncity.
